and described and designated by letters as follows:

A collar partly attached to the upper part of the bosom to encircle the neck the detached end with an eye in it to alix to a button in front C, C. A yoke or two pieces are attached to said bosom near the shoulder, each of which passes over the shoulder and meet and button on the back with eyes and buttons B, D, B, D. An elastic strap from each part of said yoke and attached thereto by an eye and button E, E, descends the back to the waist and from the end of each of said straps at the waist is attached an elastic strap running laterally one end of each attaching to the buttons G at the lower corner of bosom in front and the other ends buckling at the back F, G, F, Gr, and which .secures and adjusts the bosom and keeps it so adjusted.
